Hi all IPv6 folks,
I have recently done a lot of performance measurements in different
environments (WAN,LAN etc.). All the results have been what we have
expected - with one exception. 

When you do a ftp data transfer over a 802.3 LAN, it shows that the
performance for IPv6 is better than over IPv4. The throughput are a
little bit higher and the RTT for each packet are shorter. And there 
are no retransmissions.

Does anyone have a comment on this funny behaviour and is there anyone
out there who had noticed the same behaviour?
